An exploration of the collaborations between the photographer and couturier that shaped the visual culture of the ’80s and ’90s.
is introduced by contributions from Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris director Fabrice Hergott, fashion historian and Fondation Azzedine Alaïa curator Olivier Saillard and photographer Paolo Roversi. The 240-page book, featuring a bevy of supermodels including Naomi Campbell, Yasmin Le Bon, Nadja Auermann and Linda Evangelista, is published to coincide with theThe tale of two icons
Lindbergh and Alaïa came from very different origins and disciplines. Born in 1944, Lindbergh, who grew up in Germany, trained in the Krefeld School of Applied Arts and developed a photographic practice drawing on sources ranging from Otto Dix’s unrelenting paintings to the glimpses of Paris captured by Hungarian photographers Brassaï and André Kertész.
And Lindbergh “ennobled his subjects by lighting up their souls and personalities with the precision of the contours that he cut like a tailor.” Each helped to shape the visual culture of the ’80s and then “in unison, were the great, passionate artisans of those unadorned faces that marked the ’90s and consecrated the age of the supermodels.”Their joint contribution is illustrated beautifully in this book. The focus is purely on garment and character, all the photos shot in black and white.
